Welcome back to my Wine, Culture and Society blog. It’s been on hold for a while due to pressure of work and other personal commitments, but the symbolism of a New Year (even if it is ‘just another day’) makes this seem like a good time to restart; that – plus the build-up of a lot of interesting visits and thus stories and ideas over the last few months.
I have lots of exciting posts to pen, wines to talk about, and travelling to do; make sure you come along for the ride. What can you expect over the coming weeks? Some interesting developments on the story of old vines in South Africa, more on the current state of Tokaji, a bit of Vienna transplanted to the Adelaide Hills and the development of some of the previous ideas about wine as a symbol of dissent. Wine and its role in forming identity generally is going to be one of my themes over the year or so.
